The visible sat loop looks like there is great wave in the Sierras, anybody
soaring there today?

It looks more like the Chinook Arch than the typical Sierra wave. I'm
really curious if it's as useful.

Visible animation shows a sw flow but clouds are streamimg off peaks
in a streeting pattern, not perpenticular waves. Just a visual
observation....

I get a "connection refused" message when I try this site, something I
been getting off and on for a week now. Sometimes I get a "data not
available" kind of message. Do others have problems with this site? I
used it all summer last year with no problems.
